  READER    PAGES    AUTHOR    TITLE    DATE  
  Tony Pisarenkov    173    William Faulkner    A delightful collection of Faulkner's early sketches, written when he lived briefly in New Orleans in 1924-1925, and inspired by it. Very enjoyable, and made more so by my recent trip there. The editor's introduction is very well-written as well and gives some interesting information on Faulkner's early life. New Orleans Sketches    11/21/2009  
  Steven Krise    311    Christopher Moore    Sort of a bawdy Pratchett-esque take on King Lear, maybe? Fool    11/19/2009  
  Steve Gadd    296    Art Spiegelman     Maus    11/16/2009  
  Steven Krise    347    Daniel Dennett    Dennett skirts most of the babble about free will and determinism by defining free will to be behavioral plasticity coupled to culture. As such, it has evolved over the entire course of life on Earth and seems to have culminated in modern humans who have the most plastic and culture. Freedom Evolves    11/12/2009  
  Steven Krise    220    Graham Greene    http://www.google.com/#q=synopsis+''graham+greene''+''our+man+in+havana'' Our Man In Havana    11/11/2009  
  Steve Gadd    289    Ed Regis     Great Mambo Chicken And The Transhuman Condition    11/10/2009  
  Tony Pisarenkov    376    Alberto Moravia    Though I've seen the movie twice, reading the book reminded me how much I didn't remember about it. I initially had some misgivings about Moravia's style, but in the end it worked. The Conformist    11/1/2009  
  Steven Krise    292    Peter Ward    Ward challenges the Darwinian ''orthodoxy'' with his startling thesis that life on other planets may (or may not) use different chemistry from Earth life. Life As We Do Not Know It: The NASA Search for (and Synthesis of) Alien Life    10/29/2009  
  Steve Gadd    468    Thomas Hardy     The Return of the Native    10/27/2009  
  Steven Krise    273    Randy Penn    A fairly standard introduction to knots. It tries to go beyond just having diagrams showing you how to tie knots by having chapters on rope management, teaching knot tying, your continuing knot journey, but the author didn't really have enough material to support these additional chapters. So +5 for the idea, but -7 for the implementation. The Everything Knots Book    10/22/2009
